Magic Quotes

[Epsilon]

Okay, PHP is enabled with Magic Quotes (so you don't have to escape funky characters in MySQL data). Works perfectly fine with an INSERT statement, doesn't work at all with an UPDATE statement. I still have to use addslashes() when updating a MySQL row. Is this normal or am I missing something?

that seems rather odd. i never have to do that.

Bizarre. Where does the data going into the UPDATE query come from? I would assume a form similar to the data that's going in the first time around?

From what I've read, it's a good idea to turn off magic_quotes_gpc anyway and always manually use addslashes() or mysql_escape_string() on your data.
